Searching for some inspiration for the upcoming week by looking back at some good memories from this year's Radical Democratic Citizenship conference!

All welcome!

We left an empty chair for our keynote speaker and PhD graduate Dr Hanifi Bariş at our Radical Democratic Citizenship conference at the University of Aberdeen today. This is in protest of his continued incarceration and in defence of the right to academic freedom #FreeHanifi #HanifiyeÖzgürlük

Our esteemed colleague, friend and University of Aberdeen PhD graduate and lawyer Dr Hanifi Barış was arrested on Wednesday. He is currently being detained in a Turkish prison charged with "posting items of criminal content" on his social media pages. Here at Centre for Citizenship, Civil Society and Rule of Law we are extremely concerned about this situation and are campaigning tirelessly for his immediate release. Please read and sign our online petition and share as widely as possible with your networks. We thank you all for your solidarity #FreeHanifi #HanifiyeÖzgürlük

Currently underway in the Old Senate Room: Alejandra Mancilla is delivering an excellent paper interrogating "The Right of Necessity" - the topic of her recent monograph. Points under discussion revolve around the question of whether or not if under "certain conditions, a chronically deprived agent has a right of necessity to take, use, and/or occupy the material resources required to guarantee her self-preservation"?
